Hoboken has a questionable claim to being the place where the first modern baseball game was played: Elysian Fields on the banks of the Hudson River, not Cooperstown.
The folks at the historical society take it seriously and compete in an anachronistic baseball league.
I caught a couple of innings this afternoon. The bad guys were up 10-6 after 7 innings.
